After seven years in prison, Rudy Vandekerckhove has set himself two clear objectives: get back to work as a washing machine repairman, and – more importantly – become reconciled with the family he had left behind.

The Education

Director: Klaartje Schrijvers
Producer: Lunanime – Annemie Degryse

Synopsis

The Education is a short animated film about a teenage girl living through the existential crisis of her family and the destructive psychological and physical conflicts that come with it. The story is told, partially by the girl as an adolescent, partially by the girl as a grown-up. Past and present alternate as do causes and effects.

Nobody escapes the spiral of destruction in this crisis, yet everybody responds differently to it. The teenage girl, the main character of the film, is both perpetrator and victim of several conflicts. She is a series of personae, just like her father, with whom she has most but not all conflicts. The mother and the sister also have their particular ways of inflicting damage and treating received blows.
